Arc (Dr.) Hassan Olawale Giwa: A Peep Into The Life Of An Achiever @ 50 By Adekunle Gazali

Success is the accomplishment of an objective, however, in reality; success differs according to one’s interests and goals. To Arc (Dr.) Hassan Olawale Giwa, he derives success from what makes him happy, what gives him contentment and what motivates him to progress in chosen career.

Interestingly, Arc (Dr.) Hassan Olawale Giwa, a phenomenon beyond the political lineage, does not equate success with riches, prosperity, fortune and other mundane things. Rather, he is someone who finds success, joy and happiness by lifting others, which is the motto of his foundation, ‘creating a brighter tomorrow’. This is because he believes success is deeper than what money or other superficial and physical things can acquire.

Arc (Dr.) Hassan Olawale Giwa was born on December 23rd, 1972 to the family of Alhaji Iyanda Giwa and Alhaja Hamdalat Ashakun Giwa in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, Nigeria. The young Giwa started his primary education at the popular Omolewa Nursery and Primary School, Ibadan between 1979 and 1985. Having secured the Primary School Leaving Certificate, he proceeded to Bishop Phillips Academy also in Ibadan for his secondary education, where he obtained his Senior Secondary School Certificate between 1985 and 1991.

Arc Hassan Giwa has undeniable influence which is felt even more at the grassroots through his Hassan Olawale Giwa (HOG) Foundation which has been touching lives since 2006. He felt the need for a paradigm shift that would balance mortar and bricks with blood and brain.

Hassan Olawale Giwa Foundation (HOG) was established to contribute to the development of mankind and the society at large. It is a vision and mission conceived to create a brighter tomorrow for our teeming youths, widows and aged in Oyo State and Nigeria at large.

The mission is to provide assistance to the generality of people through various schemes including Education, Vocational Training, Agricultural support scheme, Youth and Women Empowerment as well as Widows and Aged support scheme. These visions of Hassan Olawale Giwa Foundation, over the years have been actualized through its various outreach programmes.

The Foundation has been supporting education by providing furniture and rehabilitated dilapidated structures in schools. It has been supporting students in terms of provision of uniforms, payment of examination fees for final year students both in primary and secondary levels and distribution of writing materials to aid their education. The Foundation also sponsored candidates for the Common Entrance, WAEC and NECO examinations.

In his capacity through the Hassan Olawale Giwa (HOG) Foundation for over the past 17 years, he has been supporting the people in different capacities either in cash or kind. He has been supporting traders and businesses through various free interest loans from his personal pocket without holding any political office. He has been engaging youths in different aspects, employment opportunities, free computer training, barbing, tailoring and other vocational training programmes.

Arc Giwa’s commitment to education and health is second to none. He has renovated schools, provided chairs and tables, as well as given out free exercise books and other writing materials to students. He also provided school uniforms for students both primary and secondary. He organized a free healthcare programme where people were tested, treated on various ailments.

His interest in taking care of aged people and widows is germane. He reaches out to them on a regular basis either in cash or in kind. He is doing this not because he is wealthy but because of his passion for humanity, to wipe off tears from the faces of the have-nots, the less privileged, widows, aged, the brilliant but not privileged students in the society.

Happy birthday to the new Asiwaju Adini Musulumi of Ibadanland, Arc (Dr.) Hassan Olawale Giwa, may the next 50 be even better than the first 50.
